The objective of this study is focused on sustainability principles by minimizing the environmental pollution through reusing the plastic bottles by cutting them into small fibers to reinforce the concrete matrix to boost the performance of reinforced concrete plates. To investigate the effect of the PET fiber content on the behavior of the two-way reinforced concrete plates, four two-way reinforced concrete plates. PET fiber percentages were (0.5, 1, 1.5, 2) %, with one reference plate without fiber tested up to failure under monotonic load. All concrete plates are simply supported and tested at age 28 days and with dimensions of (800 × 800 × 50) mm. The ultimate load, load-deflection relationships, and cracking patterns of all plates are reported. The findings reveal that employing PET fibers for strengthening could boost the ultimate strength and flexural stiffness of the plates considerably. Besides, the mechanical test results reveal a decrease in compression strength with increasing PET fiber content. On the contrary, the splitting tensile strength exhibited a clear improvement with the increase in PET.

Measurements of body size may be carried out remotely using a Kinect camera. We aim to develop a Matlab-based software that can be used to automatically measure the height and area in order to estimate the weight of a human body without direct contact. The size and depth of the image were calibrated for various object-Kinect distances. The depth image was segmented and normalized into a binary image, from which the height and area were calculated. The height and area of the body were correlated with the body weight. We analyzed the images obtained from 147 participants aged 5–70 years old and weighing 13.7–89.9 kg. The height measured using the Kinect camera had a high correlation with a ruler with R2 = 0.96 (p = 0.0096), and error percentage of 1.04%. It is also found that the height and area of the participants are well correlated with the weight of the participants with R2 of 0.453 and 0.658, respectively. A graphical user interface for automatically calculating the height and area of the human body has been successfully developed.

In this study, the effect of five input parameters, i.e., reliability-centered preventive maintenance, percentage of machine failure (PMF), mean time to repair for random machine breakdown, due date tightness factor, and routing flexibility (RF) on stochastic flexible job shop scheduling problem (SFJSSP) under simultaneously reliability-centered preventive maintenance and random machine breakdown environment with sequence-dependent setup time is evaluated. The effects of input parameters are measured using four different performance measures, i.e., mean flow time (MFT), makespan (Cmax), mean tardiness (MT), and total setups (TS). A statistical response surface methodology is used to assess the performance measures. ANOVA analysis is used to determine the model’s suitability. The results show that PMF and RF are found as the most common significant input factors for all the performance measures. Multi-objective optimization is performed using the desirability function approach to optimize the system performance measures. It is found that the minimum value of MFT, Cmax, MT, and TS performance measures for optimum performance of the SFJSSP are predicted as 123.432, 220,561, 103.399, and 102,171, respectively, with composite desirability, D of 0.916.

In the first part, the different objectives of optimal power flow problem with a single- as well as conflicting multiobjective manners are optimized. The efficiency of the recommended technique has been verified on three diverse standard test systems like IEEE-30 bus system, IEEE-57 bus system and large system like IEEE-118 bus network with the statistical analysis. The simulated results are equated to other reported meta heuristic methods. The second part consists of optimal power flow problem with the incorporation of solar and wind output energy. For forecasting solar and wind production, the proposed approach uses log-normal and Weibull probability density functions, combined. Penalties costs for undervaluation and a backup fee for oversimplification of unusual nonconventional power sources are included in the objective feature. The optimization problem is formulated using a nondominated multiobjective moth flame optimization method. To find the best compromise solution, the fuzzy decision-making technique is used.

However, in large and diverse spaces it often gets trapped in local optima and faces criticism of premature convergence particularly while solving multi-objective problems. The present work proposed a novel multi-objective teaching–learning-based optimization (MOTLBO) based on the framework of non-dominated sorting and solution storage in an external archive. These techniques improve the algorithm’s speed of search and convergence rate. Moreover, this mechanism also assists in obtaining a Pareto optimal set near to the true Pareto solutions while simultaneously maintaining the diversity among non-dominated solutions within one run. The present work proposed a novel MOTLBO. To determine feasibility for practical applications, perceived structure design problems are exposed to multiple and diverse weight minimization and maximization of nodal deformation objectives. The suggested algorithm is employed to five challenging optimization issues of the structure having discrete design variables and subject to multiple constraints. For a performance check, the suggested algorithm is contrasted with two prominent multi-objective algorithms. The performance gauge for all considered test examples is the Pareto front hypervolume and front spacing-to-extent test. MOTLBO shows its promise with coherence and diversification of solutions for producing the desired Pareto fronts.

This paper aims to solve the single and multi-objective OPF by combining stochastic wind power with various types of FACTS devices such as static VAR compensator, thyristor-controlled series compensator, and thyristor-controlled phase shifter. To model stochastic wind energy, Weibull probability density functions have been used. The locations and ratings of the FACTS devices are also designed to reduce the system’s total generation cost.
